@tomblackwellNP Congrats Tom on a wonderful career! Good luck in your new adventures!

Elon has taken my blue check mark, which may kinda make sense. Retired as of today from the Nat Post, ending a newspaper reporting career that stretched from Tillsonburg to Taipei. It’s been a privilege to make a living doing something I love, but time now for new adventures.

By 2033, 40% of Canadian farm operators will retire, intensifying Canadian ag's labour crunch. RBC's Mohamad Yaghi & @Naomi_Powell outline a 3-point plan to address Canada's looming farmer shortage. #agriculture #netzero thoughtleadership.rbc.com/farmers-wanted…

Very interesting post quantifying the difficulties of dealing with hydrogen vs #LNG from a Transport and #energy density perspective. Taking a broad strokes view and comparing an apple to an orange is rarely appropriate, but we tend to do that when considering energy supply

Lots of interesting themes in @StackhouseJohn's key learnings from Davos, but the loose climate club taking shape with the launch of the US's $370B IRA stood out to me. Canada's in, and now the EU wants to join the renewable energy cartel to rival OPEC. …ank-of-canada-2124.docs.contently.com/v/davos2023

Calling it "a first step in resetting our relationship with the natural world," @Andersen_Inger welcomes adoption of Global Biodiversity Framework at #COP15, says success will be measured by rapid and consistent progress in implementation #ForNature. bit.ly/3G4nGhY

Maradona would be proud:

Very sad to hear about Jim Carr's death, who led the Natural Resources file between 2015-2018. Always answered my pointed questions around Canada's energy strategy very thoughtfully and in measured tones-just what was needed in a very heated debate. Rest in peace, Minister.

Deeply saddened 💔to hear about Imran Aslam’s passing in Karachi. Describing what he was or what he excelled in is beyond this space. Tippu as he was known, was a polymath,as well as a dear friend from decades of journalism together. Pakistan’s cultural space lost a big creator.

Oil's well in Alberta: The province posted the biggest jump in revenue, and now boasts the largest surplus among provinces. Nearly all other provinces are also reporting sizeable budget surpluses. Will it last? thoughtleadership.rbc.com/proof-point-ca…
